Amelia's Weekly Fish Fry EEJournal.com

This week my podcast guest is longtime friend of the show Nigel Forrester from Concurrent Technologies! Nigel and I chat about time sensitive networking, how TSN profiles are grouped, what kind of standards are being developed to support these profiles, and how ethernet will pave the way for innovation in real-time communications in the future. Also this week, I check out how you can fly your very own eVTOL starting next month with the world's first commercial eVTOL!

What do Direct RF, next generation signal processing, and the acoustic wonder of spider webs have in common? This here podcast! Noah Donaldson (CTO - Annapolis Micro Systems) joins me this week to chat about why Direct RF is a game changer for signal acquisition and processing. We also discuss the challenges inherent with Direct RF, the biggest benefits of this technology, and where Noah sees Direct RF headed in the future. Also this week, I examine new research from Binghamton University that contends that  spider web acoustic sensing could lend itself to great strides in high-sensitivity, long-distance sound detection.

Hybrid processing technology takes center stage in this week’s Fish Fry podcast! Aaron Frank (Curtiss-Wright) joins me to chat about the evolution of processing for embedded systems, the biggest benefits of hybrid processors, why a new processing approach is more important now than ever before, and what the future looks like for hybrid processing. 

Did you know that imec is celebrating its forty year anniversary this year? This week, Olivier Rousseaux (imec) joins me to chat all about how imec is encouraging start up innovation with its DeepTechVentures. We investigate how imec can help you with your deep tech startup, the steps included the Imec.DeepTechVentures research process, and some of Olivier’s favorite startups that have been supported by imec.

Are you ready to jump feet first into the world of infrared sensor technology? In this week’s podcast, Phlux Technology CEO Ben White and I chat all about Plux Technology’s groundbreaking avalanche photodiode (APD) infrared sensor technology. We investigate the benefits that these sensors will bring to a variety of different applications and where Ben sees sustainable photonic technology development headed in the future. Also this week, I check out a new stretchy electronic skin developed at the University of Texas Austin that could equip robots with the same softness and touch sensitivity as human skin.

This week’s Fish Fry podcast is all about digital signal processing! Pulin Desai (Cadence Design Systems) joins me to chat about recent developments in vision, radar and lidar applications, AI inference trends that are driving the need for flexible and programmable digital signal processing, and why DSPs are indispensable in the new world of artificial intelligence. Also this week, I check out a new PCB prototype developed at the University of Washington that is almost completely recyclable. (Spoiler Alert: It can turn into jelly!)
